He's doing it on purpose, isn't he? Seeing her sulk and refuse to eat, he poured her portion away, not leaving any for her. He wanted her to be so hungry that she'd have to beg him. Damn Brother Ling Kong.
"Who's a mouse, huh? I'm just having trouble sleeping, with nothing to do, so I wandered into the kitchen. Happened to see a carrot in the fridge, cough... thought I'd top up my carotene, is that so wrong?"
Even though her stomach was growling, Yiyi stubbornly retorted, full of bravado.
Come what may, she couldn't lose face in front of him.
Ling Kong sneered secretly, "Oh, so that's it. I thought you were hungry."
"I'm not hungry! Why are you up then, wandering like a ghost in the middle of the night? Are you a restless spirit, haunting everywhere?" Yiyi gritted her teeth. With him staring at her like that, she didn't even feel like eating the carrot anymore.
She had been thinking of scavenging a few drinks to fill her stomach.
